Inuyasha crossover Heart no Kuni no Alice

Chapter 20: Tea Party

Gray had been in a bad mood since the day that they had accidentally bumped into the Mafia boss of the Hatter Mansion. He could sense that Blood Dupre was up to no good (needless to say), but since knowing Kagome, he had been rather protective of her and there were numerous times when his mind had the time to wander, it would want to lock her up away in some room or place where only he would know. He would tie her up and chain her in that place so that she will never be able to escape or find a way out and away from his side.

"Kagome!" Elliot called out excitedly as he went up to her with great enthusiasm as he led Kagome into the Mansion.

"Stupid rabbit! We were talking to Big Sis!" the twins voiced out their indignation as they each held onto an arm of Kagome's each.

Kagome sweat a drop at their usual antics, as she chuckled a little at it. After so much pestering from them, and her not wanting anyone from the Hatter mansion to bother those in the Tower of Clover that she decided to go join them for the tea party for once.

"We'll have plenty of time to talk during tea," Kagome said as she let Elliot lead them all into the garden where they'd usually have tea.

"Blood is a little occupied at the moment, but he will be out soon as he's done," Elliot informed her with that bright smile as he drew the chair out for Kagome, helping her take her seat as they waited for Blood to arrive.

"Big Sis! We heard that you cooked for Boris that time, we want to eat too," they whined and acted cute looking at her with their wide hopeful eyes. "Cook for us," the Twin plead as they clung onto her like cute little kittens wanting attention.

"Yes, please do cook for us," Blood Dupre said as he passed he took a seat at the head of the table and passed on the order to the servants to start serving as a pot of hot tea was placed and poured out for him.

Kagome picked up her cup of tea, as she took her time to savor the flavor. It being different as compared to the usual that she would drink back from where she comes from. She misses her family dearly, her friends and those in Sengoku Jidai. The thought of it gave her a headache as she tried to think deeper, as Kagome placed her cup of tea down, raising her hand to massage her temple with a hand.

"Carrot cake Kagome?" Elliot asked her as he happily munch and each his own large plate of cake, waiting for her answer.

"Y-yes, thank you Elliot," Kagome turned to him with a smile as she watch a servant went up to cut a slice of cake for her before serving it to Kagome.

"Eh? Big sis likes carrots like that brainless rabbit?" one of the twins asked as they both glared at the Elliot March as they both made ugly faces at him. Blood on the other hand never said anything but to silently observe as he enjoyed his tea.

Kagome merely smiled as she hears Elliot making an argument about him hating carrot but liking to eat carrots and whatnot. It is a contradiction, but they are all so fun here, except perhaps when it comes to Blood Dupre who seems to always be a mood dampener.

Blood had expected this, the first fall of snow, especially after having won the game with Joker to have the season changed. All these just so that Kagome will be stuck here in the Hatter Mansion where he will be able to keep her locked up behind the gates. He will have her well distracted of course, just so that she will not think of anyone else or allow her to return to their side.

"Looks like the season has changed, we will have to continue this tea party another day," Blood said as he got up, picking up his cane, as he looked upon the long table, looking pointedly at Kagome his eyes dark and unfathomable.

"You will stay here in the Mansion of course, your usual room will be prepared," Blood says as he left no room for arguments, leaving for Elliot to bring her to her room as his eyes indicated so in a silent order to Elliot.

"That will not be necessary," Kagome said in a loud crisp voice as she stood up slowly from where she sat, looking in a firm manner at Blood's back, as he stopped in his step with a frown upon his face.

"I insist, after all, this weather is going to get worse before it even get any better," Blood told her with a smirk as he turned to cross his arms and look at her in an arrogant manner.

"Then I'd have to just brave through it until I get out of your territory," Kagome said as she walked pass him, planning to head towards the exit.

"I really do insist that you stay," Blood said with a knowing tone, irritation in the depth of his eyes at her defiance against his wishes, and good intentions towards her.

"This is pointless arguing with you, I'm leaving," Kagome told him firmly, glaring at him as she walked pass him into the mansion with the rest of the Hatter mafia family members all looking at her worriedly, most especially Elliot.

"Kagome…" Elliot called out, his carrot desserts forgotten as he looked at her with worry and sadness.

The Twins were looking at one another as they watch Kagome disappear from their view. They saw their boss did nothing as they look at one another again. "Get back to work," was his orders to them before disappearing into the mansion.

Once within the Mansion, Blood caught up with Kagome easily as he held her back, and dragged her to the nearest empty room where he locked them within it. She was slammed against the wall, her hands pushed against him to push him off her, but his weigh against her was too heavy as Kagome protested angrily at him.

"Stay," he demanded, capturing her lips to not give her a chance to protest, neither did he give her a chance to answer him.

"Nghhffo!" she cried out muffledly against his lips, finding the situation rather ridiculous.

"I'm not taking 'no' for an answer," he told her dangerously, taking the first most aggressive of steps against her for the first time, acting unlike himself when he never is one to force an unwilling party.

"No!" Kagome said it even more strongly this time as she pushed him away, fumbling for the knife she had strapped to her upper thighs as she took the blade out from under her skirt, holding it in front of her as she threatened to slash at him a few times when Blood got a little too friendly again.

"I'm never one to force another female against their wishes, but you seem to bring out the worse in me," Blood said with a laughing smile, as he laughed beneath at himself lowly.

It was to say, perhaps one of the most pathetic moments in his life, for him to behave in such an appalling manner. He bite his inner cheek, looking at her in fierce manner as it took Kagome aback a little at the expression that she is seeing in his eyes.

"The snow storm is coming in, it'd be best that you stayed here," Blood told her gruffly, clearing his throat again as he composed himself once more to regard her as calmly as he could.

"You were never like Alice, or a replacement of her," he told her, getting to the main point of how their were always against one another's throat.

"It'd be best if you put your blade away before you get hurt from not knowing how to use it," Blood later told her as he watches her every little movement. She is without a doubt perhaps one of the more fearless ones that dared to stand up against him and even attempted to attack him even.

Kagome was skeptical at what he had to say, annoyed and angry with him for what he had just done. This was not funny if it was meant as a joke. She pushed him as far away from her as possible as Kagome ran straight ahead to where she thought the exit is, hoping to not bump into anyone else in the Hatter Mansion at the moment, and most especially not Blood again.
